Maggie Is Blase

What can one say? 
It's just the way it is today. 
Maggie's just blasé.  
Kids today  
Just want it their way, 
Maggie's just blasé.  
She just can't be concerned  
With things you have learned 
She sees things her special way.  
But you needn't fret 
It's not over yet 
It's just that Maggie's blasé 
-- Dr. Allan Lans

Aunt Judy had Charlotte picking crops
 
Look at the face of this child -- even here -- even in the 21st century --

 
Where have you gone, 
Cesar Chavez?


Judy Herrero, the Tom Sawyer of Agri-Industrialists


Uncle Mike had her toiling in the kitchen 
(where she complained to OSHA about the noise)


Only one thing kept the Department of Labor out of it:   
DESSERT PANCAKES!!!


...Maggie and I quietly did what we were told 
and cleaned the pool


BisAbuelo!
